Trouble with the internet is that I never know the right time to be sceptical.

I'm sure Camberwick Green did it first...

Yep - Brian Cant had the original patent 🙂

$50'000.

I'll get the chairs from the other room for Auntie and Grandma, and the kids can sit on the sofa...

If something's really cool, don't be skeptical about it, is my advice. Keep the skepticism for stories about spanish school plays, but believe wholeheartedly in kick-ass magic tables.

I'd love one of those.

It was just the way the joins seemed to vanish with a jolt as bits fitted together. Bit like we were looking at a CAD version of the table.

The second table video is much more convincing.

Pook, I'd love one too but I don't think there's a room in my house big enough to make use of it.

That's impressive. The $50,000 would be insignificant compared with the cost of the rest of the boat!

Completely unrelated, other than yachts and pretty stews in short skirts.

£50k for a table on a super Yacht is nothing really, Last place I worked had Patio doors that were that kind of money, we sent a Deck light/skylight out that was 3.5m x 3m and a funny shape to suit the Helideck, laminated, double glazed etc and that was over £35k from memory.
Its a whole different world....

I do love that table though
